EcoFlow RIVER 3

A standard CPAP without heated humidification draws about 35 W. The RIVER 3's 245 Wh real-world capacity gives you roughly 5h 40m — comfortably more than one 8-hour night. With heated humidification on (around 80 W), drop that to about 2h 29m.

Marginal. The 600 W surge rating sits below the 1,200 W spike a typical full-size fridge compressor needs to start. It works for compact mini-fridges and DC compressor fridges (which surge under 400 W), but a standard 18 cu ft kitchen fridge will trip the inverter on startup. For full-size refrigerator backup, look at a 1,500+ W unit.

Phones (10 W): roughly 20 full charges. A laptop on continuous use at 65 W: about 3h 3m, or 3–4 full charge-and-go cycles. Tablets land between phones and laptops — most fully charge from about 15–25 Wh per session.

From a wall outlet (268 W max input): around 1 hour. From a 12 V car port: 8–12 hours (slow trickle). From a 110 W portable solar panel in good sun: roughly 4 hours of direct sunlight, which usually translates to one solid summer day or two cloudy ones.

The LiFePO4 cells inside the RIVER 3 are rated for 3,000 full cycles before degrading to 80% capacity. Cycle it daily (heavy use) and that's around 8 years. For typical occasional use — say, 1–2 cycles a week for weekend trips and the occasional blackout — you're looking at 15+ years before noticeable capacity loss. The bigger limitation in practice is the inverter and BMS electronics, which usually go before the cells do.

Yes — up to 110 W via XT60 connector. Voltage range 11-30V. Compatible with most portable folding solar panels in the 100–110 W range; check that the panel's open-circuit voltage stays within the listed range. Our solar pairing calculator will tell you how long a specific panel takes to refill.

Yes. Switchover from grid to battery is 30 ms, fine for most home electronics but borderline for picky older desktops that may reboot on gaps above 20 ms. Plug your device into the AC outlet, then plug the power station's own AC input into the wall. The unit passes grid power through until it drops, then switches to battery.

5 years on battery and main unit, covering manufacturing defects and capacity degradation below the rated cycle count. Doesn't cover physical damage, water exposure, or unauthorized opening. Register the unit with EcoFlow within 30 days of purchase to activate.
